Good Saturday!
It is now negative a thousand outside.
the coldest reading since moving up here.
( -10 but it may as well be...)
It is bright and the sky is so blue, it is quiet too.
Last night I slept hard and dreamt 2 distinct dreams.
In one, Taylor S was staying at my home while filming
a video at the local post office ( where they were giving away
magazines and desk organisers ) when we went to the local
grocery for lunch and saw Yungblud shooting a video there.
They met and she said she would be back to the house later
as she and he went to get tea together.
In the second dream, the Kleenex box I had had scratch off
game on it. I scratched and won $$$ and a trip to Saturnalia .
( I have no idea where that is of if that is a real place )
I slept hard, as I do and am surprised at the detail
is both dreams...new dreams to me as I usually
have the same variations of dreams every night.
Let us say that this signals the middle of my Winter, the
dream state. It will last a week and then I will go back
to my normal routine. But these new dreams are fun.
I have begun to believe that we all have been overstimulated
for decades, some of us our whole lives.
The idea that dreaming should be just that... the ability for
our minds to put everything into place at night is almost lost.
People are spent.
Emotionally, physically and just plan overall.
This constant looking at our devices, over planning,
rushing but being made to wait, constant barrage of * emergencies*
every day has our nerves frayed. And because it happened slowly, over time
we all but missed it. I have lived on this earth before and after the
influx of this push and I am here to say it has done nothing
for our mindset than make everything worse.
Daily patterns became battle grounds for our nervous systems
and if we have one glitch or normal problem, the whole system crashes.
Back then, the only people's opinion that mattered
were your parents, friends and teachers.
Not a million other people....
Stepping back during my move was the best and worse that could happen.
I was able to see where I became dependent upon this
way of living, this immediate dopamine hit.
As time went on, I craved it less than I did for
going outside and sitting in the sunshine with my toes in the grass.
I did not base my life upon opinions of people I did not care about.
...and who do not care for me.
It reignited my independent spirit and allowed me to decide what to
do, think and feel...not what is trending in society .
My nervous system had a chance to calm and heal.
I could breathe fully into my belly, no longer a shallow breather.
I had no patience for nonsense.
Now, I am in tune with my whole being...
mind, body & soul and I am happy and even
better than that...content in my days.
I recommend this simple thing:
Uncouple yourself from your devices for a set time every day .
I found myself just unconsciously leaving my phone in the house when
I was out at the coops.
Sitting under the warm sun in the grass without any distractions but
what was going on around me was like a beam to my soul.
We were not made to live in stress, agitation, irritation.
Our bodies have not caught up to the devices we have been using.
We become so overstimulated we can not understand our bodies cues
to eat, sleep, drink. We over compensate with huge litres of water
and fast food binges. Our hormones get all out of whack and we wonder why
we are so emotional.
Stop.
Breathe.
Feel your feet, you legs, your body , arms and face.....
Breathe.
And remember...
Sun
Movement
Nourish
Sleep
In tune with nature...your pace.
THAT is what this point in Winter is for.
Going inward and resetting ourselves.
